8. Monday, March 19, 2012 • Class: Students will share their Type One Prompts. Ms. Barben will introduce the Group Project with “The Price of Progress”: • The Price of Progress: Great Britain led the way in the Industrial Revolution and benefitted from its advances, but it was also one of the first to feel its costs. Reformers and politicians had been aware of the these costs from the time of the first factories, but delayed making laws and creating organizations to address these problems once they became overwhelming. Some of the first reform laws that were passed dealt with voting issues and child labor. We are going to be examining some of these reform groups whose efforts finally forced Parliament to pass laws to improve the British society for all.
